West Virginia University men's basketball coach Bob Huggins apologized for using a homophobic slur during an interview with a Cincinnati radio station on Monday.
Earlier Monday, Huggins used a highly offensive anti-gay slur during an appearance on Bill Cunningham's show on Cincinnati's News Radio 700WLW. Huggins was asked about his rivalry with Xavier University's basketball team when he was a coach at the University of Cincinnati between 1989 and 2005.
"Any school that can throw rubber penises on the floor and then say they didn't do it, my God, they can get away with anything," Huggins said in the interview. The coach then replied,"What it was, was all those f-gs, those Catholic f-gs, I think."that Huggins' remarks were"insensitive, offensive and do not represent our university values.
In his apology statement, Huggins acknowledged he would"fully accept" the consequences coming his way. The 70-year-old coach, who has been with the school since 2007, has taken West Virginia to the NCAA Tournament eleven times. He led the team to a Final Four appearance in 2010. . CBS News reached out to iHeartRadio, his employer, for a comment but did not immediately hear back.
